Of course you are allowed to criticize Harimoto, stop exaggerating like Shine, the issue is that your criticism comes from a place where your lack of exposure to top level.players and coaches shows in how you make recommendations that many other top players have tried and failed to implement...

I am exceedingly positive on youth. But Harimoto knows the assignment and has worked hard at it, but the gaps are still real and no one knows whether they can be plugged. But he is young enough that one can only hope. But none of that addresses his current and past gaps and that is what was...

For sure he is a bit of a head case. But so are many good players. Time will tell.

Well, there is always another tournament. I am not as down on Togami as you are, and I was more happy for Darko because these events need their home champions to keep the crowd extra engaged. While Togami has dominated the results, the matches have always been close. He was due with the home...

Given how the match went, he really can't complain.

Jorgic defends his house!

He just had a serve toss hit himself lol. This is interesting... but it is a consequence of illegal serves close to the head so this one I am happy for.

Oh, home court is home court, it doesn't always produce positive results but it is what it is. Togami almost choked that game away, but I guess his winning streak fortified him. But that level of choking is not a good sign for him, hopefully he will do better for his own sake. Serving off the...

Whether he wins or loses this, this is a supreme choke job from Togami...

How so?

Can Jorgic defend his house? Or will Togami take his dominance over Jorgic to where Jorgic pays rent... stay tuned...

A very good win for Alexis over a ZQH that seemed to be getting back to his good form. Could easily have lost it too.

He is a better player yes, but I don't see it as being about speed or spin, though you played him and know how you felt. You seem to have played pretty well or close to your top level even without your rocket launcher and you know this or you wouldn't post the game. But the two times you...

On MYTT, a very high level pro and coach (now long retired) argued that Fan Zhendong would lose his level when he plays in Germany. My response to him applies to Zhu Yuling, I think: when the best player in the world loses his/her level, he/she just becomes one of the best players in the world.

She must be surpassing everyone with those stats...

The way Felix's backhand rallies with Sora's forehand, you would think it was practice.

Well obviously, but that would depend on whether we will take the reading of tea leaves to get to a metric that puts Togami over Harimoto and then use that metric to harass everyone into oblivion...

When the top CNT are not in the draw and many tournaments are dominated by registration from one association, 4 and 30, especially an underrated 30 without separation by association, can meet fairly frequently. After all, the same happened with Harimoto and Sora as well. In fact, it wasn't so...

Like I said, you draw connections between things to defend the CNT that are completely in your own head. This is not a major event and things like separation by association do not affect seeding or placement in the draw.

Well Harimoto will have to play better, beating China isn't the only thing that matters.
